I can't anymore

I had 2 abortions, i was in an occasion with not food or place to stay and the guy I was dating by then makes me get into prostitution... my family doesn't help me at all, I moved on from all that, and come to USA for a new start, I am a good person, I never done anything wrong to anyone, life is just being hard with me, I know I made mistakes, but I know I am a good person, I never meant to do anything bad, I helped my family even when they never did, I love them even when they didn't know how to love me. I came to this country with just 100 dollars and I don't even know the language, I didn't know anyone here. I am trying to learn the language by myself, all I need is someone who love me and help me to heal my pain.... but every time I met a guy, they left me.... and my self esteem and my self confidence goes really down...I try to keep going, to fight, but it's just difficult, painful, guys keep broken my heart, now I believe that anyone would love me ever, now I think god is punishing me for what I did... I hate my life, I feel sad, I feel lonely....

God doesn't punish us for our mistakes, he forgives us, he holds us when we are broken, he hears us when we cry and he never leaves....but he doesn't punish.

Everyone makes mistakes and no persons mistake is comparable to another's....life can be cruel and unreasonably hard, you choose to crumble beneath it or power through it.

Perhaps learning to love yourself and have that be enough is more important than having to have a man in your life. You seem to be a faithful person, perhaps letting that go to God and letting him decide when you're ready for a man in your life.

Maybe get some therapy with Social Services, join some group activities and make some friends, take those steps to forgiving yourself and being okay just loving you for a while and let that be what's important.

We tend to think God isn't there when we're trying to guide how we think our life should go instead of letting him do his job.....he's there, he's holding you while you stumble and fall.

Take care,

You should be so proud of yourself for having the courage and perseverance to become the person you are today!!! Life is difficult. period. But God is there for you,.........you need to reach out and try to talk to him/her. You will get the strength you need to carry on living the life you should be oh so proud of. May God keep you close to his/her heart!!!

You seem like a very good person, based on what you've told us, and I agree with the above posts-- it takes courage to do what you've done. Be proud of yourself, and take the tine to care for yourself niw by seeking help.

You are a very brave person to take the steps you have taken to change your life for the better. You are a good person and God is not punishing you as one of the earlier posts mentioned. Only God can heal your pain. Continue to work on yourself and your self esteem and self confidence will improve. As OlderCPer recommended that you check with your local Social Services to see what mental health services they have available and try to see a therapist or a counselor. Wishing you the best.

The very worst of the worst has been redeemed by God. True,... he does not punish. He only loves us. God is within you. He is not outside of you. Talk to Him, listen to Him ....and set your goals with unlimited determination. There are MANY women's groups around the US .... but not being a woman, I cannot name one. That is what Google is for.

Your redemption will come from God but through you. No one but you and He will turn things around. I think you have a lot to do before you establish a personal relationship with a 'guy'.

You're an extremely strong person, and that's just one of the amazing things to love about yourself. You are extremely forgiving and loving and have a heart of gold. You should never hate yourself when you have such amazing qualities. Something I'm trying to learn right now is God doesn't punish. I'm not sure why God is putting so much pain in your life, but remember it's for a reason.
